The Hidden Agenda
Kyle looked at Sally with a serious expression on his face.
Sally was startled. How should I answer his question? Do I have to tell him everything in full detail? If I
let him know that I will only get the antidote to save my dad when I gain control of Seet Group’s cash
flow and kidnap his mom, not to mention entering Seet Group, I’m afraid he will detain me right here
and now. After that, he will force me to tell him where Nicole is. So, how could I tell him?
Looking at Sally blinking her doe-eyes, Kyle let out a devilish smile. “We can discuss the conditions in
more detail. For example, if you tell me the truth when you enter Seet Group, I can arrange for a top
executive position for you. However, if you don’t, I can’t guarantee anything.”
I can’t tell the truth. As for the position, it doesn’t matter as long as I can join Seet Group. Even if it’s the
intern position, I don’t care. Moreover, I can make my lie sound like the truth. He may not even tell the
difference.
“Okay, I will tell you. I approached Seet Group to build a good relationship with your mom. Since she’s
the miracle doctor, I hope that based on our relationship then, she could help cure my dad.”
“If that’s really your intention, you could beg my mommy directly. She will help,” Kyle said.
Sally’s face darkened as she explained, “The Maupay family suffered great damage the other time and
had to go into hiding. Rumors had it that Seet Group was the one that attacked us, and your dad, Evan,
was the culprit. The Seet family could only wish for my dad to die. So why would she come to our
assistance?”
Kyle was silent momentarily, then he said, “Didn’t you say it yourself that those were rumors? You can’t
trust rumors. Furthermore, even if you have that concern, you could disguise your dad. After disguising,
you could go to my mom’s workplace, Bernian Hospital, for treatment. Then, no one would recognize
him. Why would you want to face the hassle of approaching us?”
“I-I had not thought about this method of disguising.”
“It’s not that you hadn’t thought about this. You have a hidden agenda!”
Sally kept quiet as she looked at Kyle, who was standing in front of her and fixing his eyes on her.
I must say that it’s hard to deceive him.
“You analyzed correctly. Since you know that it’s a hidden agenda. Why are you still asking? I won’t be
telling the truth even if I tell you anything.”
“So, you failed in answering my question,” Kyle remarked.
“Kyle, are you saying this because you refuse to allow me to enter Seet Group? Are you afraid? Or did
you want to arrange a low position for me to make things difficult for me?”
“I have nothing to be afraid of. You can enter Seet Group. As for your position…” Kyle sized her up
then curled his lips into a meaningful smile. “You will find out when you’re there.”
He walked inside after saying his piece.
Sally remained silent for a short moment. Then, looking at the back of his figure, she scoffed, “I can’t
wait to see what kind of position you will arrange for me. I’m definitely going to Seet Group.”
After walking for a short distance, Kyle stopped in his tracks out of a sudden. His eyes landed on a
small trash can not far away. There is a pile of garbage inside. How could there be people throwing
garbage in this abandoned manor? And there is even fruit skin. Based on the freshness, it looks like
someone threw it recently.
A thought flashed past his mind. Could it be that someone is living here?
Sally tracked Kyle’s gaze when she caught up to him and naturally noticed the newly thrown garbage. It
did not match with the situation of the abandoned manor. There were cantaloupe and orange peels,
which looked like someone had just consumed them recently.
D*mn! Will these raise Kyle’s suspicious?
Sally cleared her throat and said immediately, “I can’t believe that there are still people throwing
garbage away in this abandoned manor. They must be the homeless beggars sleeping here at night for
cover.”
